Chapter 539 Ambush from the Face
Upon hearing Noah's answer, Cangnian couldn't help but twitch his lips.
It seems that this was Noah's deliberate attempt to get closer to a natural life form after he was persuaded to use a real human voice.
However, now is not the time to complain. Looking at the marker in the virtual image that Noah maintained with array techniques in mid-air, which was rapidly approaching the Ark, Cang Nian turned his head slightly.
"Get me out of here!"
Cang Nian quickly spoke to the little sable beside him.
A fifth-order evolved creature, in a one-on-one fight, it's estimated that only it can fight against itself.
Of course, the Black King Serpent, which is currently at the top of the Ark and unable to enter the main control room, is larger than most fifth-tier evolved creatures.
However, Cangnian had previously tried a one-on-one duel with the Black King Serpent and found that the Black King Serpent's strength was indeed no less than that of a fifth-tier evolved creature, and might even be superior in some aspects.
However, it is slightly less agile, and its physical superiority is only enough to reach the threshold of fighting against fifth-order evolved creatures.
The Black King Serpent's special ability is to devour, and its size can be broken through the limits, which can be classified as a physical enhancement type of ability.
When the size difference is not significant, the Black King Serpent has no other means of combat besides melee, while its opponent has supernatural abilities to assist it. The balance of the battle will inevitably shift towards that of a fifth-tier evolved creature.
Moreover, this is near the Ark.
If the battle cannot be decided quickly, it could affect the Ark.
Although the Ark is made entirely of Tier 4 alloy, it is quite difficult for Tier 4 evolved creatures to destroy it.
However, for a fifth-order evolved creature, destroying the Ark is not exactly easy, but it's not difficult either.
Therefore, I have to fight this battle myself!
Moreover, fifth-tier evolved creatures are enormous. Killing just one and gaining proficiency in the White Tiger Divine Might skill is equivalent to killing a dozen or even dozens of fourth-tier evolved creatures!
Zhizhi~!
Upon hearing Cangnian's command, the little sable immediately nodded, and then a spatial portal unfolded in the main control room.
In fact, the volume of the main control room is somewhat cramped for the size of Little Purple Sable after it reaches the fourth level.
However, there was no other way. If Cangnian wanted to get to the outside of the Ark as soon as he saw the target appear, he could only rely on the power of the little sable.
Fortunately, this also allowed Noah to discover the flaws in his design.
Noah said that given two days, it would replicate the formation on the top platform of the ark, and then it could command from there.
Upon seeing the unfolding portal, Cang Nian lightly leaped inside.
In the next instant, he arrived at the top platform of the ark, and was right next to the direction from which the attack was coming.
If the portal hadn't been underwater, which would have flooded the control room, the little sable would have definitely placed itself directly on the other person's face.
Plop~!
Then, Cangnian plunged into the water and shot off toward the giant beast!
Perhaps it was due to the Dragon Kingdom's management of the upper reaches of the Yellow River before the revival of spiritual energy, or perhaps it was due to the revival of spiritual energy, but the river water is still very clear even though we have traveled more than 100 kilometers into the Yellow River from its estuary to here.
Therefore, in just a short while, Cangnian saw the giant beast charging straight down from the bottom of the river.
The giant beast had a long snout, its entire body was covered in rough, thick scales, its short, thick limbs were pressed tightly against its torso, and a wide, long tail swayed from side to side with its body. Its whole body cut through the water like a torpedo!
"Crocodile? Does the Dragon Kingdom have wild long-snouted crocodiles?"
Upon seeing this, Cang Nian frowned.
Compared to the various deformed sea creatures in Japan that have been turned into bizarre shapes by nuclear contamination, the evolved creatures in China are mostly of easily recognizable original species.
China does have native wild crocodiles, but there is only one species—the Yangtze alligator.
That thing is a disgrace to the crocodile world. Not only is it small in size and has a short snout, but its teeth are also blunt. Its fighting ability is not even as good as that of a rural goose. It can only turn over stones at the bottom of the pond and look for snails to eat because it can't catch small fish that are too fast.
But the one in front of us, which is nearly a hundred meters long, is indeed a fifth-order evolved creature.
However, its snout is quite long and its teeth are sharp and ferocious, clearly not a Yangtze alligator, but rather looks like the numerous Nile crocodiles.
That's one of Africa's top predators.
"It's probably not wild, but rather artificially bred. It escaped after the spiritual energy revived..."
But soon, Cangnian had a guess.
China has relatively strict control over these imported carnivores; they can be farmed, but free-range farming is strictly prohibited.
Crocodile skin is made of the finest, high-grade leather, making it a premium material for shoes and bags.
Moreover, its meat is remarkably palatable among carnivores, and its rarity compared to common meats like pork, beef, and lamb often results in a high price.
Therefore, crocodile farming has a decent market in China.
The spiritual energy revival tide caused a major earthquake, possibly because the crocodile farm was destroyed, and the crocodiles escaped.
As the top predator in Africa, it is like a fish in water to come to a place like China, where the population is large and wild animals need legal protection to maintain a certain population size.
However, to have survived until now and even evolved to the fifth rank, this guy must have had many extraordinary encounters to become so powerful.
But for Cangnian, he wasn't afraid of this guy being powerful, he was afraid that it wasn't a fifth-order entity!
"It seems the resources for Little Purple Sable's advancement have been secured!"
Cang Nian licked his lips, already excited.
However, at this moment, the giant crocodile also noticed Cang Nian, and its cold eyes focused on him.
But the giant crocodile paid no attention and continued its attack on the ark.
Cangnian is still in a reserved state, and weighs only about 500 kilograms.
Such a size wouldn't even be enough to fill the teeth of a giant crocodile that is nearly 100 meters long.
Crocodiles have very wide gaps between their teeth!
Since Cangnian did not reveal its aura, the giant crocodile only regarded Cangnian as a weak second-tier evolved creature.
With just a glance, the giant crocodile brushed past the Cang Nian who was right next to it.
Seeing that he was being ignored, Cang Nian was not angry.
This is a perfect opportunity to launch a surprise attack right in front of us!
Thinking this, Cang Nian had a sudden thought and released his true form!
Huh~!
Next, he moved 90% of his stamina and 90% of his spirit attributes to the strength column!
Bang~!
Immediately, a fierce claw slammed into the giant crocodile's belly!
The scales on a crocodile's back are many times more protective than those on its belly!
Therefore, even if Cang Nian is very confident in his own strength, he will prioritize attacking the opponent's weak points when facing such a seemingly strong defensive opponent!
They're in the same social class, so they should be given the respect they deserve!
Whoosh~!
However, the moment Cangnian struck, his entire body was sent flying backward at incredible speed!
